Antonio Brown and Derek Carr’s sons are already playing football together, and it’s adorable
Oakland Raiders fans are only two weeks away from seeing what their new quarterback-wide receiver duo have to offer with their first preseason game.
If they wait a preview, they might look to Derek Carr and Antonio Brown’s sons.
Brown posted a video to his Twitter account on Sunday of 4-year-old Ali Brown and 3-year-old Deker Carr playing catch at what appears to be Raiders training camp.

While we can’t make out Carr’s mechanics, Brown shows great technique with the two-handed catch, and his excitement to run a cone drill is admirable. And like any good receiver, he knows to turn upfield after the catch.
We’re still over a decade away from Deker and Ali potentially going in the NFL draft — let alone playing in college football — but it’s always good to see children of athletes showing a passion to play at a young age.
There have been 63 second-generation NFL players, so will Ali or Deker be one of the next? We’ll have to wait until the 2034 or 2035 drafts to find out.
Hopefully the young duo make another appearance at the Raiders’ next game, when they take on the Los Angeles Rams — sans Todd Gurley — on Aug. 10.
